So...I'm an idiot. I saw a concert listing on a couple of websites saying something along the lines of "8-26 The BSC, Ophibre at The Piano Factory" and got all excited because I thought The BSC stood for
Burning Star Core (even though there's no "the" in front of the latter). Well, I went to make a post just now about the upcoming show, possibly showcasing a video or mp3 of Burning Star Core, only to find out that an entirely different band is playing.
If you happened to be in a similar position to me, let me bring you up to speed. The BSC is a somewhat local, large group of people led by Bhob Rainey (and includes
Howard Stelzer, yay!). There doesn't seem to be a lot of info about them. Like, anywhere. Bhob has a
website, a
MySpace, and a
blog (that hasn't been updated since 12-07). The most info I can find is from the
Semata Productions blog (the people putting on the show) where it says, "The BSC generates consistently fresh and compelling work through innovative rehearsal techniques and long-standing musical collaborations between individual members of the group."
Well there you have it. This Tuesday night,
Ophibre (who recently e-mailed me because he saw me
writing about him on my blog, which means I'm famous,
again) and The BSC will be playing at The Piano Factory at 791 Tremont Street in Boston. The BSC will be playing two, yes
two sets. Sounds like a good time to me. I'll be there. And maybe I'll write about it afterwards.
The best I can do for a song to hear is
this sample found on Bhob's website. It's the only track I've found labeled specifically as The BSC (instead of any individual's solo work). So if you like what you hear, maybe you should come to the show. Come on. There's gonna be two sets of awesomeness
plus Ophibre. That's pretty hard to pass up.
